The Samurai Web Testing Framework is a LiveCD focused on web application testing. We have collected the top testing tools and pre-installed them to build the perfect environment for testing applications.

I've run Samurai in VMWare for a few different jobs, working with both the liveCD (booted on VMWare guest) and the official VM image (version 0.6). Ran fine for me in both NAT and Bridged VMWare networking modes without issue.

Can you provide any additional info to help diagnose your problems?

Static or DHCP IP?

VMWare mode tried?

Can you reach your gateway IP?

Can you reach other machines on the network?

Can other machines on local network reach your Samurai virtual machine?

great spot! i had a little training/workshop the other day from IBM on Rational Appscan and was impressed by the features. i was wondering if there were any good open source alternatives for web app scanning so i guess i will have to try samuraiWTF!

CISSP, CEH, ECSA, OSCP, OSWP, eCPPT, eWAPT

earning my stripes appears to be a road i must travel alone...with a little help of EH.net

Aside from the web testing tools on this distro, they did something really cool:they put a local wiki to take notes with while you are pen-testing, then you can export the wiki when you are done.
